The membership has voted to merge LLOPS with WestPac. The LLOPS Board will now begin working with WestPac leadership on the transition process and will share additional information as details become available.
As a result, members do not need to renew their LLOPS memberships. Please disregard any membership renewal notices or invoices you may have received.
We appreciate your support of LLOPS and your participation in shaping its future. We will continue to keep members informed as plans progress.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the LLOPS Board.
If you recently received a membership renewal invoice, please hold off on renewing your membership until after our June Business Meeting.
June Business Meeting
Wednesday, June 24
12:00 – 1:00 PM
Zoom (log in to Wild Apricot membership site for link)
At the meeting, we will discuss the future of LLOPS, including membership dues and the organization’s financial planning. Depending on the outcome of those discussions, membership renewal costs may change.
If you have already renewed, there’s no need to take any action at this time. We will provide additional information after the meeting if any changes are made.
This is an important conversation about the future of our chapter, and I encourage all members to attend and participate.
Thank you, and I hope to see many of you at the business meeting.
Have you discovered a new product that you think is great? Nominate it for the New Product Award! Any AALL member may nominate products and vendors can nominate their own products as well.
This award honors new information products offered by commercial vendors that enhance or improve existing law library services or procedures or innovative products which improve access to legal information, the legal research process, or procedures for technical processing of library materials. A “new” product is one which has been in the library-related marketplace for two years or less. New products may include, but are not limited to, computer hardware and/or software, educational or bibliographic material, or other products or devices that aid or improve library workflow, research, or intellectual access. Products that have been reintroduced in a new format or with substantial changes are eligible.
